For morphometric material taken around Balut Island, Philippines. The new species comparisons, adult shells selected among available specimens had been previously misidentified as Profundiconus cakobaui in several private collections, as well as in the collections of (Moolenbeek, Röckel & Bouchet, 2008) or Kurodaconus darkini the MNHN, were measured with a digital caliper, and the (Röckel, Korn & Richard, 1993). The observed similarities and measurements rounded to 0.1 millimeter. All measurements differences of these taxa with the new species are discussed. are in a spreadsheet, deposited as supporting information at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30741402/ BIBLIOGRAPHY/XT12/limpalaeri.xls. For comparison of shell INTRODUCTION morphometry, we have performed analysis of the covariance The genus Profundiconus Kuroda, 1956 has been (ANCOVA) for different shell parameters namely maximum recently reviewed in Tenorio & Castelin (2016), and currently diameter (MD), height of the maximum diameter (HMD) and comprises 27 species living in deep water. The species in this spire height (SH), using species hypotheses as factor, and shell genus are spread over the Indo-Pacific region, except for length (SL) as covariate. Statistical tests were carried out using Profundiconus emersoni (Hanna, 1963), which occurs in the STATGRAPHICS 5.1, once all the measurement sets passed the East Pacific region. However, the inclusion of this species in normality tests. Profundiconus is only provisional (Tenorio et al. 2012).

Accepted: July 28, 2018 Data deposition: Raw RNA seq data: SRA database: project number SRP139515 (SRR6983161-SRR6983169) Abstract The transcriptome of the venom duct of the Atlantic piscivorous cone species Chelyconus ermineus (Born, 1778) was determined. The venom repertoire of this species includes at least 378 conotoxin precursors, which could be ascribed to 33 known and 22 new (unassigned) protein superfamilies, respectively. Most abundant superfamilies were T, W, O1, M, O2, and Z, accounting for 57% of all detected diversity. A total of three individuals were sequenced showing considerable intraspecific variation: each individual had many exclusive conotoxin precursors, and only 20% of all inferred mature peptides were common to all individuals. Three different regions (distal, medium, and proximal with respect to the venom bulb) of the venom duct were analyzed independently. Diversity (in terms of number of distinct members) of conotoxin precursor superfamilies increased toward the distal region whereas transcripts detected toward the proximal region showed higher expression levels.

In this paper, we present an overview of the biodiversity ofboth marine snails of the large genus Conus and their venoms. After a brief survey of Conidae malacology, we focus on the high degree of biodiversity of this gem1s, its specifie biogeography as weil as its habitat, and the relatively strict di et of its members. The venom of Conidae species contains a large number of pep­ tides that can interact selectively with key elements of the peripheral and central nervous systems of vertebrales and invertebrates. Emphasis is on summarizing our current knowledge of the spe­ cifie actions of venom components on ionie channels, receptors and other key elements of cellular communication. The peptides isolated from venoms, called conotoxins, form different families according to both their primary structure and their specifie pharmacological targets . Three. families encompassing the ~-, ~0- and ô-conotoxins target voltage-sensitive sodium channels but with dif­ ferent modes of action or tissue selectivity.

While Conus venoms are increasingly well studied for their biomedical applications, we know surprisingly little about venom composition in other lineages of Conidae.

We complemented reference- based transcriptome annotation by a de novo toxin prediction guided by phylogeny, which involved transcriptomic data on two additional ‘divergent’ cone snail lineages, Profundiconus,andCaliforniconus. We identified toxin clusters (SSCs) shared among all or some of the four analysed genera based Subject Category: on the identity of the signal region—a molecular tag present in toxins.

The genus Profundiconus Kuroda, 1956 is reviewed. The morphological characters of the shell, radular tooth and internal anatomy of species in Profundiconus are discussed. In particular, we studied Profundiconus material collected by dredging in deep water during different scientifi c campaigns carried out in the Solomon Islands, Madagascar, Papua New Guinea and New Caledonia.
